Similarly, molecules that bind and inactivate the VEGF have been developed for the treatment of ARMD and they are applied in ARMD clinic through intra vitreal injections. These include antibodies, a recombinant receptor fusion protein and a synthetic aptamer. The anti-VEGFA antibodies - ranibizumab and bevacizumab, off-label, have been associated with limited side-effects and significant therapeutic improvement, and became the standard in the treatment of the wet form of ARMD. Indeed, for example in the first clinical trials for ranibizumab, monthly injections of ranibizumab demonstrated an average gain in visual acuity of 6.6 and 10.7 ETDRS letters after 24 months. However, currently most clinical centres apply modified treatment protocols. Commonly used is an initial loading dose of three consecutive monthly injections and subsequent follow-up and administration of additional injections depending on the evolution of visual acuity, optical coherence tomography and fluorescein angiography data . 25% of the ARMD patients show significant improvement of the visual acuity, 70% maintain or show slightly increased visual acuity, and the remaining 5 percent of the patients fail to respond to the treatment and continue to loose vision.
